I used the outhouse while staying with my grandma and grandpa…..where I actually lived we had inside bathroom but honestly I loved it out in the country and woods so much the outhouse didn’t really bother me that much at all…except when it was like 20 dev out or in a thunderstorm! But for those times our grandma came up with some ingenious ways to go! What you’ve done is really beautiful….I could live there.

Nice cabin. I have a 20’ x 24’ cabin on some acreage in Ky. I do have the luxury of having electricity but no running water or toilet. I shower out of a 5 gal bucket using a battery powered shower wand. Cooking is on a grill or a propane camp stove but lots of the time I just warm up stuff in the microwave. My porch is 6 ft wide and it’s just right...

We looked for land for years. It is difficult to find the right spot. We used a realtor who sent us listings until the right one came along in a specific area. We paid about twice what it was worth in 2020 when we bought it compared to it being listed previously. The world had gone mad during Covid. It was a very raw piece of land at $6000/acre at the time. We’ve put a lot more into it since.
